CTCaer, I suggest you not waste too much time testing Undervolt, because every cpu is different (quality of materials, production date, temperature), I think the default values ​​from aire are widely tested and good, it would be better if you used your precious time trying new things, thanks again for your fabulous work and contribution.

Keep it up my friend, you are great! ;)

Re: [KERNEL][ICS] ** CTCaer Kernel ** v2.51 [Linaro][UV/OC][Triple Buffering][RAM Hac

Ure mod is not work for me dude

:(

I think i have to be passion to waiting for next release

:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
Well right now 1.6ghz is confirmed to be unstable. The kernel starts at 1.6ghz (and is immediately go to 1.4ghz at init boot phase.) and mr.nou's cpu doesn't tolerate 1225mV as much as ours to boot.

Currently I don't have time to work on this or even update my sources on github, as I'm building a site for a company, it's what it gives me food :).

I'll work on it as soon as possible. For now mr.nou if your phone bootloops on init logo, please use a version

older

than 2.50-2.51.

All other ppl you are good to go with 2.51, but don't enable 1.6ghz if you experience restart after boot.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mr.nou:
Re: [KERNEL][ICS] ** CTCaer Kernel ** v2.51 [Linaro][UV/OC][Triple Buffering][RAM Hac

W/ActivityManager(555): Force finishing activity com.sonyericsson.android.camera/.CameraActivity

...the camera focuses, makes the sound, looks like it's going to save then force closes with an unknown error message, so there's obviously a conflict somewhere.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
What omx libraries are you using?

I didn't changed vidc code, neither qdsp and reverted back the pmem patches.

If you really using the sony's compiled the camera works.

Just test sony stock kernel and see if the camera works. As I can remember a kernel needs some changes to work completely on MIUI roms and mine is for stock based. That means you need the libaudio and omx libraries from .587/.13

Lastly I can't find the stock based irii-soft's kernel. What I found were kernels which had 2.6.32.60's qdsp and vidc code, which as I tested (along with 2.6.35.x code) in the weekend that passed are incompatible with stock libraries.

Anyway test sony's stock 4.1.B.0.587 or .1.13 kernel and if the camera is still not working then i can't help you. Irii-soft miui is tied with it's kernels.

Anyway if you want some peace in mind send me the link of the irii-soft kernel that you use (because I found more than 2) and I can tell you why it's really not working for you. But if it really is what I think don't expect a fix without releasing a version of my kernel only for his MIUI roms.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SXUsr:
See the attachment for the kernel, probably just quicker for you to take a look. Thanks.

EDIT: Put my thinking cap on and made a zip of the stock files to replace the ones in the kernel modules zip, flashed ctck2.51b-noclrdex and now it's working. :) Thanks for your assistance. :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
Well you were fast there. just completed my research and based on

2.6.32.59-iriijo (irii-soft@irii-soft) (gcc version 4.7.2 20120731 (prerelease) (Linaro GCC 4.7-2012.08-1~dev) ) #49 PREEMPT Sun Sep 2 15:56:08 CEST 2012

string I found the sources are https://github.com/irii-soft/semc-kernel-msm7x30/tree/ics-release

Which show extensive upgrades to newer kernel versions.

And many of these tried them myself and all came to the same thing. They need specific libraries.

So yeah thats why not you fixed it. Much of the code is tied to specific libraries. For example stock use omx libraries 3.8, which use the 3.8 headers to call stuff from the kernel drivers.

So basically you replaced the /lib folder right?

Good thing you fixed it :)

And after so much php coding I'm hopefully going to sleep :P

EDIT1:-----

@XperienceD: Btw if you want to use the feature versions without having your dalvik restored every time, see what you can do about that missing file. Create it and also make a script that makes /cache permissions 0777
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] azeunkn0wn:
I am using MIUIv4 and CTCaer v2 and it was awesome. fast, stable, with no problems at all. until i updated to v2.51.. home crashes or freeze, more FC on theme apps, etc.

testing to reflash the rom.. :)

nice kernel though
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] stillka:
problem is that theme manager is not working with the latest kernel. because of that, miui launcher is hanging.

here is logcat message:

"I/ServiceManager( 3481): Waiting for service miui.shell..."

It's strange because it's cracked in the rom that this miui.shell shoudl not be used, but obviously crack is not work with this kernel, but it works with older versions of kernel.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
Still can't understand this. The kernel was always made for stock based rom and that service never implemented in ramdisk.

So why it works with older versions...

And only currently known bug is that 1.6ghz has low voltage and makes the cpu halt. So as long you dont use 1.6ghz and phone boots there shouldn't be any change in behavior than previous versions.

EDIT---------

Anyway for now you have to be a little patient, as i can't work on the kernel right now.

Maybe that is at fault: https://github.com/CTCaer/CTCaer-ICS-Xperia2011/commit/e8e1bc8531c6a2f4fa6aac9fad7f0487eded2cf0
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SXUsr:
More or less, I just copied over whatever files were in the irii-soft zip, and deleted one too before flashing the stock files.

Installed 2.51 and all is good! :) Thanks again for your time, and sorry for wasting it as I should have thought about making a modules zip sooner, but can't see the wood for the trees sometimes. :)

this post indicate Vengeance kernel+umHD boot time only 10-15 second.

I try the scripts with your kernel, it doesn't work.

Could you implement it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] stillka:
I think there is patchech theme manager in the maxworks MIUI rom which allow to use normal kernels (don't need this service).

It works OK with your kernel until 2.5.1, I can confirm that.

Anyway, here is "MIUI friendly" version for people which want use your 2.5.1 kernel on MIUI (with that service in ramdisk).

I hope it's OK for you.

https://dl.dropbox.com/u/23556207/miui_ctckernel-v2.51.img
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
Ehm. First of all a sleep command in the init.d scripts is not and will never make a boot last more.

It's running as a service and all service run along side with others. If you have a script with sleep 500, boot will not take 8.5 minutes to complete. Or even change.

Also a booting done in 15 seconds is exaggeration. Even xperia T does half a minute to boot.

Also the init.d scripts run at the last stage of init boot phase.

Basically statements like "which is 40+10=50 seconds of unnecessary waiting at boot logo..." are completely false)

They do not change your booting time. Sleep commands are used in scripts to define when to run some commands.

For example I have a script with sleep 120 so it will wait to renice a service which is not running before the 2 minutes.

And have in mind that the only way to reduce the booting time is by increasing cpu speed (no more than 1.4ghz is advised for our phones) at boot and reducing the "bootanimation phase" by having significately less apps. Because of these we can't do many things for boot time.

EDIT1:-------------

So basically this service fixes also the problems mentioned by azeunkn0wn?

I can implement that because we don't care if init can't find the service in stock roms. So it's ok to add this small miui compatibility fix.

So I'm waiting feedback from you and azeunkn0wn.

If all is good I'll be happy to implement that in ramdisk for next versions

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_XHL5CB_7w#!

why SONY did not implement it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Redmoon_:
you should make kernel for jellybean too :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
Htc's fastboot is somekind of hibernation. That means that the phone is not really restarting.

And when us want a restart it means that we want to clear ram from unnecessary things, apply a new change that needs reboot and generally refresh the system.

The msm hardware supports various sleep modes the most common are:

pm.sleep_mode=0 -> collapse suspend

pm.sleep_mode=1 -> collapse (will totally power off the cpu)

pm.sleep_mode=2 -> sleep (cpu is still on, but put into low power mode (registers are still saved)

pm.sleep_mode=3 -> slow Clock and Wait for Interrupt (lowered frequency and voltage)

pm.sleep_mode=4 -> wait for interrupt (no change in cpu clock or voltage)

the mode 0 enables the suspend of phone. It's the one that htc uses. It basically powers off everything and only keeps the ram on power.

It just that htc made that suspend is done only when you have enabled the fastboot.

Basically this can implemented via a rom hacks. not kernel.

Just search how to enable suspend mode. Still for a normal sleep mode when the screen is off the best results in battery come from pm.sleep_mode=1

UPDATED to v2.52

Released a Hotfix update

Check Post 2 for changelog

And also check OP for downloads

Download link is back online

This will fix some problems, introduce a little smoother video playback and add MIUI compatibily (hopefully). :)

Also tried to stabilize 1.6GHz more. No booting problems. But still use 1.6GHz after boot to your own responsibility

ps: Sources at github.com are now up to date with 2.52

change to

pm.sleep_mode=0

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0

persist.cust.tel.eons=1

ro.mot.eri.losalert.delay=30000

-------------------------------------------------------

can't feeling any thing different?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
I always used

pm.sleep_mode=1

ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0

In some tests I've done before months, the phone did lasted more on pm.sleep_mode=1

So there are 2 options for you when you don't use your phone (including calls!!):

Either switch it off

Or search the forum on how to enable the full suspend mode

EDIT1--------

Another option is to enable airplane mode and let it screen off. (that only eats 1% every 4 hours to me)

Please provide some tips to increase the gaming performance.

Hi CTCaer,

Please provide some tips to increase the gaming performance.

I normally play games like NFS Most Wanted, Temple Run, ...

Currently using CTCaer Kernel v2.52, superleggera v5
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
I normally enable a 256mb swap when gaming and then disabling it after I done (if I remember it ahahhah).

Also my clock is at 1.4Ghz and use the jb adreno libraries.

Other than that I sometimes reduce graphics in parts with low fps if the game supports it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jmurugesh:
Can you please tell step-by-step procedure for enabling 256MB swap? I have tried the Gaming Mode v2 Script created by you, but it was not able to do the operation successfully.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] raheelanjum:
Hi CTCaer!

Thanks for your fabulous work. I want to ask you about some thing different. I asked this in arcatarc thread as well and he advised me to ask kernal developer about it. You must be aware of crossbreeder (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2113150). It lists five ways to reduce lag. The last and fifth method is using Frandun. It states that:

"Frandom support - CrossBreeder now supports linking both your random devices to the extremely fast alternative - Frandom (http://billauer.co.il/frandom.html ). This module is orders of magnitude (10-50 times) faster than the standard character devices ( Check this out - http://xdaforums.com/show...&postcount=134 ). The erandom character device also installed by Frandom doesn't use up system entropy at all on top of being fast.

You will need to ask your ROM developer to develop the kernel modul

e for you and then place it in /system/lib/modules. CrossBreeder will then try and load it and if successful, make all the necessary adjustments so that both /dev/random and /dev/urandom are pointing to /dev/frandom and /dev/erandom respectively.

The speed benefits are to be seen to be believed

. But since each ROM requires a unique kernel module, this option is left optional ( but auto detect) "

Please see the underlined text above. The discussion on how to implement it in Kernel is spread in the thread.

Can this be implemented in any of your future versions?

Note: I am using crossbreeder mod with arctrac superleggera V4 and I can feel noticeable improvement.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] CTCaer:
What error does the script show? (It only needs root and busybox though.)

Yep I know frandom also if I implement that into kernel there's no need for modules or anything. All the job with linking can be done through ramdisk.

Right now with the tweaks I've done, I haven't seen entropy pool depleting. Everytime I remember to check is between 700 and 1400 bits

Also I've changed the code and the /dev/random is non-blocking also.

I don't know how much difference really frandom with the tweaked random has (have in mind that this 10-50 faster rating maybe is like the one does 100us and the other 5ms, which unnoticeable in our eyes) but if it really does seem fast then yeah why not.

I'll review the ctcaer kernel random generator code and frandom again.
